Currently, Missouri has one of the strongest laws against abortion — triggered immediately by the Dobbs decision in 2022. If Amendment 3 passes, that law will essentially be gutted. //

If I were rich, I'd donate a bunch of money to the groups trying to defeat these ballot initiatives. The idea that there can be a constitutional right to kill an innocent human being is disgustingly repulsive. At stake is not just the lives of many children who deserve protection from abortion, but also the very bedrock of our constitutional order - the right to life recognized by the Declaration of Independence as a "self evident truth." //

Or people with "dangerous ideas" or "oppressor" heritage, or low IQs or high risk of disease, who were born into slavery, or whatever defect the government wants to play up at a given time. If rights come from the government and can be allocated based on attributes other than our mere humanity, then all sorts of abuses become possible.
